Black woman from the outskirts, proudly local and deeply in love with my state and city — Olinda, Pernambuco, Brazil. 🫶🏾 Youngest daughter of Seu Francisco and Dona Gilvanise. I’m super close to my family, but I also have a bit of a wanderer’s soul. I’m a journalist, entrepreneur, and activist for Black and feminist causes. I love popular culture, parties, the beach and the forest, traveling, having a beer or a good glass of wine. Telling stories is my biggest passion — and reading others too. I guess that’s why I love connecting with people. And maybe that’s also why I’m here.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

To meet new people, languages, and cultures — and to share mine too. I’m traveling through South America, and I truly believe that what makes a journey real is the exchange.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Make a documentary. Start a business. Throw on a backpack and go explore the world.

教，学，和分享

I can share what I know about Portuguese language and communication on social media. Photography, cinema, and spirituality too.

I love sharing the culture and special places of Olinda. I can also talk a bit about Brazilian history, politics, and Black identity.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

Long talks and lots of laughter for sure. Showing some cool spots around the city, cooking a good meal, and sharing the local culture.
